The American FFA Degree is the highest degree awarded by the National FFA Organization, and earned by fewer than 1% of members. Cole has shown extreme dedication to his local chapter and state FFA association, helping to continuously inspire members all across our state, and even Nation.
Cole’s FFA career has been nothing short of inspiring. Thank you, Cole for representing our chapter across our country, and reminding all of us exactly why we do what we do. Your passion for educating youth about agriculture, leadership, and personal growth opportunities is absolutely contagious.

GTRA FFA Chapter President, Carter Koenck, and Chapter Reporter, Mara Koenck recently served as as mentors for the Bacon Buddies program. Carter and Mara had the opportunity to work along side a student with special needs, preparing her for the Bacon Buddies show. The Bacon Buddies program gives students with disabilities an opportunity to work with show pigs in a capacity that would not otherwise be possible. Students learn about hogs, the industry, and how to show. The students, along side their buddies then show their pigs in a show at the Iowa State Fair. Carter and Mara both enjoyed the experience and can not wait to participate again next year. Carter said, “This is the coolest thing I have ever been involved in, and I can not wait for upcoming years”. Thank you, Carter and Mara for representing our chapter and community in such a positive way! DarenSuzy Koenck Caryn Caye Robinson
